Restart to receive invites

Noire

Recently a few friends and I have been having issues with invites.

upon us requesting to be invited to a world we must request the invite then restart the game to have the invite show up in the notification. I tend to request from a few people just incase one fails as restarting my game just to see if I have gotten any notifications is rather annoying.

We're actively investigating this issue and hope to have a proper fix implemented in a future update.
In the meantime, as a temporary workaround, you may want to consider disabling IPv6 which has resolved this issue for other users. You can do this by following the process on this site: https://contenthub.streamlabs.com/content-hub/post/how-to-solve-ipv6-issues
If you are using Oculus Quest in standalone you will need to look into disabling it in your router.

This MUST be fixed. It's been too long. It issue is that the client has no check to see if the web socket has gone stale. The unofficial tool VRCX using your same published APIs does it better than the actual game and NEVER has this issue on the same networks. This is embarrassing, fix it.

Happy birthday! This ticket is now 5 years old, and the issue still persists.
The game is essentially unplayable (friend list, notifications, invites etc are only fetched once at login, and just stay frozen like this after) without a third party tool, or the website open in a browser.
Disabling IPv6 is not an acceptable workaround, as other services running on my machine make use of it.

im currently having this issue even when diabling ipv6 im at a complete loss on how to fix and have to keep restarting my game to even see players come online.

Having this problem in 2026 for around 5 months now. Disabled IPV6. At a complete loss on how to solve it.

Im using star link which only uses IPV6 and im having the same problems. Is there an estimated time that a fix may be coming out?

I’ve just now having this issue, my friends are not seeing my request to invite, or invite requests at all! Same with friend requests, and it’s not just me ‘my partner and close friend are experiencing the same issues

I've just recently gotten the same problem as well, it's frustrated me to the point where I want to break something, but I'm keeping it together as much as possible. I'm doing the process of the site as we speak, but no luck so far

I have the same issue for 3 weeks by now. nothing helped so far, i tried every soloution there is. it worked fine for the last 4 years ive been playing but out of no where the bug started / also on a computer in the same house connected to the same router it is working.

This is still
 an issue up to this day. 
I can't get notifications, including invites.
My friends statuses don't update so I can't tell if they are online or not.
Friend locations don't update.
IPv6 is disabled already.
I get notifications on the VRChat websites but can't even invite myself to instance because guess what? I can't see invites!
Only solution I've found is to restart VRChat which is annoying, especially if you're in a lobby with friends already.
